About the test
Spain: Paleo to Classic Hispania – Complete Ancestral Compendium
Have you ever wondered whether your ancestry reaches back to the first humans who hunted red deer in Ice Age Spain, or to the metalworkers, warriors, poets, traders, and empire-builders who later shaped Iberia into one of the most culturally layered regions on Earth? This compendium offers an unparalleled journey through more than 25,000 years of continuous human history, revealing how generations of people lived, adapted, innovated, and transformed the Iberian Peninsula from prehistory to the classical world.
This is one of the most comprehensive regional DNA reconstructions ever assembled. We reconstructed the genomes of 177 ancient individuals from over 70 archaeological sites across Spain, spanning a vast timeline from 22,500 BC to 663 AD. Together, these individuals represent every major cultural, technological, and political transformation that occurred in Iberia—from Paleolithic hunter-gatherers to Roman citizens of Hispania.
What tests are included in this compendium?
This compendium unites eleven of our premier Iberian genomic reconstructions, each capturing a defining chapter in Spanish history. Combined, they form a continuous narrative of human life in Spain unmatched in depth, scale, and chronological coverage.
You will receive a deeply integrated ancestral profile combining genetic data with historical, archaeological, and paleogenetic insight. Each ancient individual includes a detailed profile covering daily life, belief systems, technology, social organization, interactions with neighboring cultures, and major historical transitions. This compendium allows you to trace ancestry across millennia and observe how cultural revolutions and migrations shaped the DNA of Iberia.
This is not just a DNA test—it is a complete reconstruction of Spanish human history. From Ice Age hunters to Roman citizens, from megalith builders to sword-forging elites, this compendium offers an unmatched opportunity to discover how your own genetic story may intersect with the deepest roots of Hispania.

Why take this test
In the most information-rich era in human history, we’re still limited by one vast unknown—the lives and identities of our ancient ancestors. While our digital age connects us globally, our roots remain largely a mystery, concealed by time and sparse records. Ancient DNA Hub aims to bridge this gap with revolutionary ancient DNA tests, allowing you to trace your roots back to the ancient world in a way once unimaginable.
Before 2010, reading the DNA of ancient people was a distant dream. That changed when scientists sequenced the DNA of a Neanderthal who lived over 30,000 years ago. This breakthrough unlocked the secrets of ancient genomes from people who lived between 15,000 BC and 1800 AD, spreading paleogenomic research across time and continents. Now, a new generation of DNA testing no longer relies on modern populations as stand-ins for ancient tribes. Instead, it goes right to the source, using the DNA of the ancients themselves.
Ancient DNA Hub’s Tests are the first of their kind, crafted solely from the DNA of ancient peoples through our pioneering technology. With our tests, you will receive a uniquely detailed ancient ancestry report, pinpointing specific regions and tribal connections more accurately than ever. Imagine discovering lands, tribes, and empires where your ancestors lived, fought, created, and dreamed millennia ago. By merging genetic data with the knowledge of history and archaeology, Ancient DNA Hub brings the past to life—helping you connect to your heritage on the most personal level.
